Today, we&#8217;re happy to announce a new round of fixes, updates, and new features to our matches system &#8211; with a heckuva lot more still in the works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let&#8217;s Talk Fixes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the last few weeks if you&#8217;re CFdating account has been human-approved by our staff, but you haven&#8217;t been able to send messages with your matches &#8211; your solution has arrived.  We encountered a bug thanks to feedback from the community, and we were able to get full resolution on it over the weekend.  We also have made the interior CFdating experience a bit more informative for brand new members, as we want to make it more clear to new CFdate&#8217;rs that while the service is 100% free, your account must be fully approved by our staff before messaging is enabled.  However, the messaging service is now back to 100%, so if your account is approved feel free to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cfdating.com\/start.php\">message your matches<\/a>!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of matches, it looks like our development team had accidentally released a test version of our matches filter up onto the live website, so the radius was always getting set for 25 miles &#8211; no matter what you entered in the radius filter.  We apologize for that, but know that the fix for this is live, and we&#8217;ve even started making additional enhancements to the matches system with quite a bit more in the works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Matches Enhancements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>How does a 2,000 mile radius sound?   One of our most popular requests from the CFdating community was to expand our match search radius, so that&#8217;s exactly what we&#8217;ve done for our United States-based members.  We also want to stress that this is just the beginning as there are a ton of new matches system feature adds coming in the next few weeks, with the first and foremost being one that we think our international users will love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I&#8217;ve mentioned in previous posts, (reliable) geolocation data for countries outside of the United States is hard to come by, so we&#8217;ve come up with a pretty good solution that should really improve matches for members outside of the US.  Not only will this feature let members take a broader, more complete look at other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cfdating.com\">childfree matches<\/a> in their country, but it will also allow them to look at their surrounding area &#8211; much like the 2,000 mile radius does for folks here in the States.  Look for this update very soon as it is at the top of our development list!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a related note, we also will be rolling out some additional tests based on similar feedback in regards to long-distance matches: these tests will include one or two additional profile survey questions along with what we think will be a neat matches filter and viewing option in an effort to improve the overall experience.  We&#8217;ve gotten a ton of suggestions to incorporate long-distance relationship options, so for those of you who have submitted those ideas please know we have some very cool updates coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t created a profile here at CFdating.com yet, what are you waiting for?  CFdating is the world&#8217;s largest childfree dating site, and we are 100% free with zero ads.
